Title: Prevent cache clash for textinput width between password = True/False.

There's a clash in the cache if there ate two textinputs with identical text, one has password enabled, the other doesn't. You can see the issue with the following test code:

from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.boxlayout import BoxLayout

class TextInputApp(App):

def build(self):
root = BoxLayout(orientation='vertical')
textinput = TextInput(password=True)
root.add_widget(textinput)
textinput2 = TextInput()
root.add_widget(textinput2)
def t(instance, value):
textinput.text = value
textinput2.bind(text=t)
return root

TextInputApp().run()

Just type e.g. lots of w in the bottom textinput to see the issue.

Note, #2301 should be merged before this is merged.
